Comment:

This cd was produced Oct. 10, 2001. War and Happiness, the name says it all. The crossfades on the songs make it a smooth but centrifical ride. As I did with Amino World, I tried to mix the positive with the negative, in this case about both war and happiness. Not a lot of positive songs about war, but the war chants served that purpose, as does Winston Churchill's spoken word "Fight on the Beaches" speech. The transition of that into "Silly Hat" is the bomb.

This is real nice. Love that Bob Dylan song, one of the best songs ever recorded.
